HP StoreVirtual 4000 Release Note page 5

The SAN Status Page now has an Active Tasks Status Pane, which allows you to monitor the
progress of snapshot creation and deletion, volume resynchronization and restriping, and RAID
rebuilding
Performance Enhancements including the following:
◦
Multi-threading capabilities allow for improved application performance
◦
Internal data transmission improvements impact internal SAN processes, such as significantly
enhancing volume resynchronization and restriping speeds, and reducing the impact to
overall system performance resulting from scheduled snapshot activity
◦
StoreVirtual VSA adds a second virtual CPU
Release of HP StoreVirtual 4330 and 4330 FC
Rebranding to HP StoreVirtual and LeftHand OS
Over the next year HP is transitioning to new product naming in our product, documentation, and
solution materials. StoreVirtual is the new name for the LeftHand P4000 product family and LeftHand
OS is the new name for the SAN/iQ operating system.
Fixes
Released version 9.5 patch sets and patches, which are included in version 10.0 software.
Version 9.5—Patch set 04
Centralized Management Console (CMC)
The CMC reported "export support bundle successful" when the storage system failed to export
all log files.
The CMC notifications window did not display the most recent patches at the top of the list.
SAN/iQ operating system
Eliminated the requirement for manually adding the RAID controller SAAP license when a P410
RAID controller is replaced.
iSCSI sessions could be disconnected during patch upgrades.
Upgrades and patches did not install when a storage system was added to a management group
without the required SAN/iQ partition.
Setting the network interface speed to auto failed if it was previously set to a specific speed.
After upgrading storage systems (nodes) in a management group from 8.5 to 9.5, if you attempt
to delete the 8.5 storage systems (nodes), it is possible under rare conditions that the 8.5 storage
systems (nodes) could cause the 9.5 managers to stop. As a result, all volumes in a management
group would go offline for up to a minute while the managers restart.
Memory leak occurred with SNMP version 9.5 monitoring. The leaks occurred specifically when
the SNMPWALK or the SNMPGET command was invoked.
Running concurrent CLI commands on the same storage system caused the management gateway
service to restart. For best performance, HP recommends that a maximum of two CLI commands
be sent to a storage system (node) an any time. If you need to send more commands, HP
recommends balancing the command load by sending commands to different storage systems
(nodes) in the management group instead of to only one storage system (node).
